Engine Maintenance

Consult the engine booklet for the maker's instructions.
DRAINING THE OIL.
Remove the drain plug which is situated at the rear base of the
engine. Collect the old oil in a suitable tray such as a two litre ice
cream container.
IGNITION.
Your engine has a breaker-less solid state ignition system which
requires no maintenance other than occasional attention to the
spark plug. We recommend cleaning and re-gapping
every 50 hours with replacement every 100 hours (see engine
instruction booklet).

sive grains can enter the engine and
cause serious damage. USE ONLY THE
EXACT TYPE OF REPLACEMENT PLUG
specified in the engine instruction booklet.
